Struggling to find work, Isaac Hobbs reluctantly agrees to participate as a subject in a  psychological study. The premise is simple: he will be locked in a room with a stranger for a month, disallowed to make contact with the outside world. Things start off relatively benign, although his cohabitant is anything but an open book. What begins as mere suspicion develops into full-blown paranoia as Isaac slowly discovers more and more about his roommate. Does the stranger pose a threat to Isaac's safety? Or does the danger reside in Isaac's own mind? Join the experiment as a proverbial fly-on-the-wall in this psychological thriller about man and his demons, both within and without.

Note from the author: New chapters will be published on Sundays. Hope you enjoy :)
